After a renovation, the Bear Forest Arbesbach in the Waldviertel now has three new enclosures. According to a release on Tuesday, the area was expanded by 10,000 square meters to 24,000.
It is now possible to "offer even more rescued bears a species-appropriate home" while also making the Bear Forest more attractive for visitors, said Eva Rosenberg, director of the operating organization "Four Paws".
With the new arrivals "Felix" and "Dunbar", two of the three new enclosures have already been occupied. Both animals are still in the acclimatization phase and therefore mostly avoid the gaze of visitors, according to the release. The other of the currently five brown bears in Arbesbach are "Brumca", "Erich", and "Mark".
